Items this document does not state (15)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The decline in revenue was mainly due to a reduction in advertising rates for “online medical consultations” by a major customer that arose in the previous fiscal year. Gross profit edged up as the surge in media costs for “loans and cards” subsided, while operating profit increased as selling, general and administrative expenses improved through reductions in advertising expenses. The decline in profit attributable to owners of the parent was due to a temporary difference in tax rates.
